Important quotes said by Piscine

A quotation said in chapter 57 by Piscine was as follow "Without Richard Parker, I wouldn't be alive today to tell you my story." This is true because the presence of Richard Parker in the most terrifying moments saved him from loneliness, it also helped him keep his day busy.
Another quote was said in Part Two, it said "Life on a lifeboat isn't much of a life. It is like an end game in chess, a game with few pieces. The elements couldn't be more simple, nor the stakes higher" This is talking about Pi's life and adjusting to the sea life also conceive on the nature of being an outcast.
Last important quote was said in chapter 93 it read as follow "The lower you are, the higher your mind will want to soar."  He had said this when he almost reached land, the reason this was said, was because he would think of his situation "As pointless as the weather." Each day he had to do something new such as Killing fish, taming Richard Parker, making drinkable water using the solar stills, etc. Each day he had a new routine to follow in order to survive.
